Le Paddock presents this elegant 1964 MG B Roadster, presented in stunning British Racing Green with black interior. A true icon of the British roadster from the 1960s, this example benefits from left-hand drive, a classic vehicle registration document and, most importantly, an overdrive gearbox – a particularly sought-after feature that enhances comfort and driving pleasure on the road.

The odometer reads 63, 500 km (5-digit counter).

Key highlights:

- Manual gearbox with overdrive, left-hand drive

- Classic vehicle registration document – 5th owner

- Rear luggage rack

- Alternator replacing the original dynamo

- Electronic ignition for improved reliability

- 12-volt conversion

- Restoration photographs retained

- Hood replaced in 2018

- Upholstery in good condition, refurbished during restoration

- Detailed inspection report available (2017)

- Excellent overall presentation

History and work:

This MG B underwent a comprehensive restoration in 2015 by its previous owner, including notably:

- Bodywork restoration and repainting

- Engine mechanical overhaul

- Suspension and running gear restoration

The vehicle file includes photographic negatives from the restoration.

Known work and maintenance:

- Complete restoration in 2015

- Hood replacement in 2018

- Carburettor overhaul and adjustment in 2022

- Clutch master cylinder replacement in January 2026

- Regular maintenance

- Last oil change/ service carried out in Q1 2025 by the owner

General condition:

This MG B presents a striking appearance and retains all the charm of English roadsters from its era. The paintwork, applied during restoration, remains attractive but today shows some minor wear marks consistent with its age (light scratches and localised imperfections).

Front tyres are dated DOT 0917 and rear tyres DOT 4416.

Why Le Paddock recommends this example:

A first-generation MG B Roadster in an iconic colour combination, benefiting from a documented restoration, a well-maintained history and an overdrive gearbox – a feature particularly prized by enthusiasts.

It is driven regularly and maintained by a recognised specialist in classic British motorcars.
